Drew Barrymore, Ellen Page and Kristen Wiig in Whip It!

The folks at USA Today just released the first photo from Drew Barrymore's upcoming directorial debut "Whip It!," a sports comedy based on the novel by Shauna Cross.

The film centers on Bliss Cavendar (played by Ellen Page), a Texas teenager who finds a way of dealing with her misery after she discovers a roller derby league in Austin.

Barrymore, Jimmy Fallon, Marcia Gay Harden, Juliette Lewis, Kristen Wiig and Zoe Bell co-star in the film, which is set for release Oct. 9, 2009.

Check out Page, Barrymore and an unusually serious-looking Wiig in the still above. Ready to roll?
